Not sure on mods yet, probably tinted sidemarkers to start and eventually a splitter and side skirts. We're in a winter storm currently, so I have a few months to figure things out before it gets to see daylight. For now, just waxing and trying to learn the ins and outs by reading the forums.

I was open to 2LT/3LT, but knew I had to have the red interior. Comp seats were just a bonus!

Congrats on the car, be sure and get that manual out and read it so you understand and know how to work certain things on the car. Tons of info in there!
